Christophe Coin, Ensemble Baroque de Limoges, Choeur de Chambre Accentus - Bach: Cantates BWV 41, 6, 68 (1996)

On Astrée E 8855 there are three sacred cantatas. The first is Jesu, nun sei gepreiset (Jesus, now be praised), BWV 41. Bach wrote the six movement score in 1725 to celebrate New Year’s Day (Circumcision of Christ, Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus). The composer wrote parts for all four soloists and a four-part chorus. There is a rich and varied instrumentation: a piccolo cello in a concerted part, three trumpets, three oboes, strings, basso continuo with the addition of timpani. Of the two chorales the uplifting and sparkling first chorus with its trumpet fanfare lasts over eight minutes.
The six-movement chorale cantata Bleib bei uns, denn es will Abend werden (Abide with us, for it is toward evening), BWV 6 was written and first performed in 1725 for Easter Monday. Bach’s instrumentation is for a piccolo cello in a concerted part, a pair of oboes, an oboe da caccia, strings and basso continuo. All four soloists are required and a four-part chorus that is used in the opening and closing chorales.
From 1725 Bach wrote his short cantata Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt (For God so loved the world), BWV 68 for Whit Monday (the second day of the feast of Pentecost). This short cantata is cast in five movements and begins and ends with a chorale for chorus. Bach uses just the soprano and the bass as soloists with a four-part chorus. The instrumentation calls for a cornet and three trombones, a pair of oboes, a tenor oboe, a cello piccolo, strings and basso continuo. The soprano aria uses an adaptation of the famous melody (Sheep may safely graze) from the secular cantata, BWV 208 known as the ‘The Hunt’.
